Mullet No More
Ben got his first haircut on Tuesday. His hair was a little shaggy over his ears and Ryan was concerned that he was growing a mullet so we needed a little trim job. Miss Ashley did great and was so sweet and patient with his squirming and Ben did fantastic. He sat in the chair fairly still and didn't fuss until the very end. He is now a dapper little boy!

The Birthday
Maggie's birthday was fun and busy from start to finish, with a little nap in between! She had a great day and told me this morning that she was sad that it wasn't her birthday anymore!:)

Happy Birthday to Maggie!
This sweet girl is 3 today! Maggie had a fantastic birthday day. She had pancakes for breakfast and pizza for dinner - both her choice. She wanted Qdoba for lunch but since we had a late breakfast, we convinced her to postpone it until lunch after church tomorrow.:)
Some favorites in Maggie's life right now:
*Huggies - her lovie
*Clark - her BFF
*the color blue
*Mickey Mouse
*grilled cheese sandwiches
*chocolate milk
Happy birthday precious girl! You are the best 3 year old that I know! You are sweet, happy, silly, love to sing, love to play pretend, and love Kate and Ben. You say some of the funniest things and I have a great running list of those things to share with you when you get older. I love you to pieces and know that your 3rd year will be your best yet!!

Big Events for Maggie
We celebrated Maggie's 3rd birthday yesterday with a swimming party. She had 10 friends swim with her and then eat a dinner of grilled cheese and french fries - her favorite! The kids had a ball swimming and dinner was a success and of course there were cupcakes to enjoy as well! We'll be celebrating the real birthday tomorrow and she's got her list of breakfast, lunch, and dinner choices ready!:)

Ben enjoyed the party too!
And Maggie had a school change today. She and Kate now go to Monte Cassino together. She's in the 3 year old program and her teacher, Mrs. Wahl, is great. I left Maggie happy and busy this morning. Can't wait to pick her up and hear how her day was!
Ben enjoyed the party too!

3/4 Of the Way There
This crazy hair boy is 9 months today! Every month it's the same thing...I can't believe how fast this is going by. He'll be 1 in three short months!! But instead of being sad about it, it makes me happy because he is getting better and better each month and it is so fun to watch him.
Some highlights from Ben's last month:
*Ben finally cut a tooth. He was a major crankpot which I totally blame on him being a male. The girls never made a peep when they were cutting teeth. His molars ought to be real fun!:)
*We have a crawler. I posted about it a few weeks ago, but he's made progress since then and is all over the place. The girls are really good about keeping their toys out of his play area, but I occasionally hear "mom, Ben has a choking hazard!":)
*Ben started MDO yesterday and had a fantastic first day with his new teachers and his old friends.
*We also had a family reunion at Mimi and PopPop's and Ben got to meet many of his extended cousins and they were smitten over him!
Ben is still a sweet as can be baby. Mags was like this and when she turned 1 her real personality came through (which is not a bad personality, just a little more opinionated). Based on that, I'm going to enjoy these last 3 months before he turns 1, just in case!!

First Day for Mags and Ben
Maggie and Ben started MDO this morning at our church. Mags in is in the Middle 3s class with Miss Emma and Miss Kim and Ben is in the Crib class with Miss Jan and Miss Brenda. I left both kiddos happy and playing with their friends and picked them up from school very sleepy. Maggie said she had a fun day playing with Kynlee and Clark and Ben's report sheet said that he was "friendly, happy, and busy." I think they are both going to have a great year!

And on a total side note, Kate was beyond thrilled today to get to check a book out of her school library and has told me no less than 10 times "it's due back on Monday."
